Steam Controller

I revere Valve. Those crazy bastards do business by ignoring everything other companies hold sacred. They don't sweat trifling matters like P&Ls, market analysis, or quarterly earnings marks. They just aim to engineer products that they, as gamers, would like to see, instead of forcibly attempting to shape the composition of their consumer base to arbitrarily fit their corporate philosophical mandate. Giving us what we actually want is disrupting the industry and making Valve successful. Who knew?

So to go along with their upcoming Linux gaming OS, and modular adaptive console, they introduce this gamepad. It might as well have fallen out of a time machine with the amount of ingenuity and forethought built into it.
